  Is/was everything demonized

  does anyone here have this experience?

  in my old congregation there were a number of sisters absolutely obssesed by the demons.

  if a dog barked too loudly when approaching a door on the field service "it is demonized' -- if a refridgerator broke when the co was due round for a meal or after the service "it was demonized".

  jw childhood held a lot of fears, armaggedon, demons, etc. I remember walking with my friend, and we happened upon a toy boat, lost or left behind by some child. I was excited ( I didn't have many toys growing up ), so I went to pick it up so I could take it home. My friend screams at me to drop it, it could be demonised. Uh, ok.....I did leave it there though, because what if she was right? I certainly didn't want to invite demons into my house!

  When I was a teenager, I read the Stephen King book Pet Cemetary. I was a bit nervous about it, because I was afraid I may be inviting the demons into my home, but they never came.

  My dad wasn't a witness, but he knew how scared we were of demons, so what did he do? He scared us of course, by throwing things around at night when we couldn't see him, making us think demons were throwing things at us. We caught on pretty fast though.

  ah....memories.....

  i took a specialised law exam yesterday, and i should really have been revising hard this past month, but because of what happened with my dad, i didn't.

  even though i won't get the results till next week i know that i have failed , and the company that i work have never had anyone fail this exam before.

  so i am a bit cheesed off.

  Ang, if you like Jonathan Kellerman, then you'd probably like his wife's books also. His wife Faye Kellerman is an excellent author. When either of these two write a book, I have to buy it. Same goes for Patricia Cornwell ( except I didn't buy her book on Jack the Ripper ).

  I left over 4 years ago, but my husband is still in, and I suspect, always will be.
